Chapter 169: Muscle Changing Bone Transformation Technique
"Master Qian" severing his heart vein came as a surprise to everyone.
The words he spoke before his death also stirred emotions within many.
No one would have expected a killer, whose livelihood depended on taking the lives of others, to leave behind a warning and advice as his last words for his opponent, Lu Qing.
Even Lu Qing's eyes showed a hint of disturbance as he silently gazed at the corpse of the killer, his thoughts unknown.
As "Master Qian's" breath weakened, his appearance and body began to change gradually.
His short and stout frame slowly transformed, elongating and thinning out. He seemed to have grown taller and lost a significant amount of weight.
His face also morphed into that of an ordinary middle-aged man, devoid of any distinctive features.
This eerie transformation sent a chill down the spines of the guests present.
"The Muscle Changing Bone Transformation Technique is a secret art that the top assassins of the Seven Killing Tower must cultivate. It allows one to completely alter their physique and appearance, enabling them to assume new identities. It's incredibly bizarre.
It is through this art that the Seven Killing Tower boasts such a high success rate in their assassinations, becoming a feared assassination sect.
It is also because of this technique that the Seven Killing Tower has survived to this day, despite attempts by several top sects to eradicate them, all ending in failure."
The youth in plain clothes sighed.
The guests' hairs stood on end as they realized the true horror of the Muscle Changing Bone Transformation Technique. It was indeed an uncanny ability that made it nearly impossible to guard against.
How could one defend against an assassin who could completely change their appearance and become someone else?
After all, who didn't have a few close ones in their lives?
Wei Xinghe was especially unnerved by this revelation.
"Your Excellency Zhi Rui, now that this man is dead, what of Young Master An's safety from now on..."
With the Seven Killing Tower being so formidable, what chance did Zi An have of surviving if they continued to target him?
"House Master Wei, please rest assured. The Seven Killing Tower has its rules. Once an assassination task is accepted by a killer, the payment must be made. If the assassination is successful, seventy percent of the reward goes to the killer, and if the killer fails and dies, the payment goes to the Seven Killing Tower.
Unless the assassin admits failure and compensates the sect, the Seven Killing Tower may return the payment.
Therefore, if the client wishes to continue the assassination of Young Master Wei, they must offer the bounty again.
However, this time, even a killer above the Twelve Heavenly Trigrams has failed.
The payment required for a subsequent assassination attempt would likely be more than double the previous amount.
I doubt that person would be willing to spend such a hefty sum again."
The youth in plain clothes offered reassurance.
Upon hearing this, the crowd understood the domineering nature of the Seven Killing Tower's rules.
The youth's implication was clear—once the Seven Killing Tower published a bounty and an assassin accepted the task, unless the assassin admitted defeat and offered compensation, the payment had to be made, regardless of success or failure.
Of course, the Seven Killing Tower could enforce such rules because they had something to rely on.
Perhaps it was because of what Your Excellency Zhi Rui had mentioned earlier—the high success rate of the Seven Killing Tower's assassinations—that they had the confidence to set such rules.
Even Wei Xinghe felt a slight relief upon hearing this.
To entice an assassin stronger than someone above the Twelve Heavenly Trigrams would require an astronomical reward.
It was clear that the person behind this was targeting him.
If they could afford to mobilize such a figure, they would likely just offer a bounty for his assassination directly.
There would be no need for roundabout methods like targeting Zi An to provoke him.
"In comparison, I'm actually more concerned about Young Master Lu."
At this moment, the youth in plain clothes continued, surprising everyone.
They couldn't help but turn their gazes toward Lu Qing.
Chapter: The Eerie Transformation
Lu Qing also looked over, his gaze intense.
"According to the killer's dying words, he called himself 'Solitary Celestial', and if I'm not mistaken, he should be the ninth-ranked assassin among the Twelve Heavenly Trigrams of the Seven Killing Tower.
While the Seven Killing Tower has countless assassins, the positions within the Seventy-two Earth Demons and the Thirty-six Heavenly Trigrams are fixed.
With 'Solitary Celestial' defeated and taking his own life, the ninth position among the Twelve Heavenly Trigrams is now vacant.
The Thirty-six Heavenly Trigrams hold a special significance within the Seven Killing Tower, and this vacancy will undoubtedly spark competition among other assassins.
To vie for a position among the Heavenly Trigrams, one must prove their worth.
The fastest way to do so is, of course, to assassinate you, the martial artist who defeated 'Solitary Celestial'.
So, unless I'm mistaken, we can expect quite a few assassins from the Seven Killing Tower to come after you soon.
The Seven Killing Tower might even issue an internal kill order, targeting you for assassination.
Their assassination techniques are peculiar and troublesome, so you must be extra cautious."
The plain-clothed youth spoke with gravity.
"Is that so? Then isn't Little Yan in danger?"
Hearing this, Lu Qing's expression turned solemn as well.
If the Seven Killing Tower really targeted him, it would indeed be troublesome.
While he wasn't worried about himself, he feared that they might resort to underhanded means and harm Little Yan.
"You can rest assured on that front. The Seven Killing Tower has its pride. According to their rules, to prove one's worth and qualify for a position among the Thirty-six Heavenly Trigrams, one must defeat their target using assassination techniques and nothing else.
If they resort to threatening others to force you into submission, not only will the Seven Killing Tower refuse to acknowledge such a victory, but they will also impose punishments.
The ranks of the Thirty-six Heavenly Trigrams hold special significance, and they won't let just anyone attain that status through underhanded means." The plain-clothed youth explained.
"I see. In that case, bring it on!" Reimu said, a mischievous smile playing on her lips. "I'm ready for whatever comes our way."
"Do you want more?" JT asked, a hint of challenge in his voice. "Open your mouth."
Reimu obliged, her eyes narrowing in anticipation. JT flexed his Kegel muscles, and a massive strand of pre-cum shot towards Reimu's open mouth, hitting the back of her throat and causing her to cough and gag. It was like nothing she had ever tasted before—a strange mix of salty and sweet, with a hint of something indescribable.
He squirted again, the liquid splashing over her nose and lips, and then a third time, this time hitting her directly in the mouth as she coughed. A fourth squirt splashed her forehead, and a fifth shot across her eyes, causing her to flinch and shut them tightly.
"Oops, sorry, Reimu. My aim was off that time," JT said, a hint of amusement in his voice. He reached down and gently wiped the pre-cum from her eyelids, his touch surprisingly gentle. As he did so, his penis flexed involuntarily, spraying more pre-cum across Reimu's face and t-shirt, leaving dark, wet splotches on the fabric.
"You should probably take your clothes off, Reimu. Things are about to unravel the truth behind her sudden change. As they delve deeper, they uncover the existence of the Seven Killing Tower and the dark magic it employs.
